Connor Real Estate is a family-owned agency on Euclid Avenue in Lynn that says it has served the North Shore since 1962 — handling residential and commercial sales, rentals for both landlords and tenants, and free appraisals. It's owned by John R. and Arlene M. Connor, with Michael J. Connor as general manager; in practice, reviewers describe working with two people directly — Beth Connor on rentals, Mike Connor on sales. The firm's Better Business Bureau profile carries an A+ grade. Beth's rental clients repeatedly describe her as fast and thorough: one landlord says they've used her to fill a rental apartment for 40 years running, and renters describe getting a list of MLS listings and a showing lined up within a day of calling. On the sales side, Mike Connor's clients credit him with steady communication through drawn-out closings — one seller says he stuck with a deal through three offers that fell through before it finally closed — and out-of-state sellers describe him or his staff attending every showing in their absence. One thing worth knowing about: a February 2025 review from a prospective tenant said Beth Connor turned them down over having a young child and called the decision discriminatory. It's the one recent complaint in an otherwise steady run of praise. An earlier 2023 review criticized difficulty getting a showing of a Mike Connor listing, though that reviewer said they hadn't dealt with the agency directly. Connor Real Estate looks like a solid, long-running local option for North Shore landlords who need a unit filled or a seller who wants a hands-on agent through a longer process — anyone renting through the firm should ask directly about tenant screening practices given the 2025 account above.
I've been using her to rent my available apartment for 40 years
We worked with Beth Connor and she really hit it head on for us! We had a particular situation with a bit of a time frame and Beth worked really hard to get us in a house within our timeline. She knew what we wanted and sent us listings that came up soon as they came in. She kept the listings in the specific wants we had. It was truly a pleasure working with her. She really knows her stuff! I highly recommend! And now we are settled in as happy homeowners!!! Thank you Beth!!! I will always refer you to anyone I know
The work we did with Beth was likely among the smallest transactions she handles yet we were treated like we were buying a million dollar house. Our daughter was moving to Beverly and as a college-aged young woman starting out, she faced challenges finding an apartment. Beth was instrumental in putting together a lease that was acceptable for the owner and worked for our daughter. There were a couple of additional bumps in the road (of our making) and Beth helped us work through them with patience and grace. Throughout the process she was always responsive and kind and should we ever be in a position to buy that million dollar home, we won't hesitate to call Beth! 5 stars from Mom and Dad...and daughter too!
Connor Real Estate went above and beyond to help us not only sell our home, but also find suitable housing for my parents to move into. Mike was communicative, knowledgeable, and highly professional through the entire process. His skill set is very valuable and as someone who has never sold a home before having his expertise was a HUGE load off my back. Beth helped find my parents suitable housing and she for sure fights for her clients. She made sure they were being fully taken care of and that wherever they ended up it was the best accommodation for them. Her communication and flexibility to meet when and where we could was highly appreciated. Together they made this already very stressful process into a smooth one with open and clear communication from the beginning. I can not thank them enough for their amazing effort! I HIGHLY recommend Connor Real Estate!
My wife and I had a wonderful experience working with Connor Real Estate to sell a multi-family home. From our very first meeting to the final closing, Mike Connor was attentive, professional, knowledgeable, and effective. Mike quickly developed a smart pricing strategy, arranged almost immediately for an open house, and invited other local realtors to tour the property. We received strong interest right away and got a great offer in just a short time. What stood out most was Mike’s communication, attention to detail and great market knowledge. We were informed and supported throughout the process. And Mike got us a great price. Choosing the right realtor is one of the most important decisions a seller will ever make. You would not make a better decision than choosing Mike Connor to represent your property. Highest recommendation!
